Chapter 648 - 648: Are You Afraid?
He seemed to be begging for something.
So, even he couldn’t accept such an outcome?
However, Jiang Xun did not care about his worries and fears. “It’s impossible for a person to change so much. When one suffered a setback, and their personality and behavior might have changed. However, these changes required corresponding abilities to support them. Otherwise, there would only be changes in mentality and not actual changes in action. Did your original daughter know kung fu? Could she fight? Even if she was abused by the Luo family and decided to resist, she still had to have enough power to resist.”
“When did you hear that she learned kung fu? I told you before that I learned my kung fu from an old man in the village, but you should have checked. There’s no such person in the village.” Jiang Xun had already made her words very clear.
Jixuan looked at Jiang Xun in shock. His feet were fixed to the ground and he could not move at all.
It sounded like a particularly scary thing, but for some reason, Jixuan didn’t feel afraid at all.
His feelings for Jiang Xun had never changed.
Anyone who heard what Jiang Xun said would feel afraid!
They would not dare to look at her or be with her again.
However, Jixuan didn’t feel that way at all.
Chengye saw that Jiang Xun was not even willing to hide it. She kept saying
“your daughter” and even used “her.”
“You…” Chengye’s hands gripped the armrest of the wheelchair tightly, his pupils flickering.
“You know that I’m not her.” Jiang Xun no longer gave Chengye any chance to escape. “You knew about it long ago.”
“But you never showed any doubt. Perhaps it’s because you think that your daughter is quite capable and hasn’t embarrassed you. Instead of having a useless daughter, it’s better to keep me. Or maybe it’s because you do have a little guilt and regret, so you’re unwilling to admit that your daughter is gone. As long as I’m here, you can still treat me as her. You wanted to give yourself some psychological comfort. Even if the person you’re compensating is no longer your daughter, as long as this body is still here, you can treat me as if I’m still her.”
“What are you talking about?” Chengye gripped the armrest of his wheelchair tightly. “Do you know what you’re saying?!”
“Sister?” Jixuan called out softly.
It was as if he was afraid that if he spoke too loudly, Jiang Xun’s soul would be scared away and he would never have this sister again.
“Your daughter is dead. She died a long time ago.” Jiang Xun said coldly, “Before I came, she was bullied by her classmates at school. She fell down the stairs and died.”
“She never lived a happy life. Although she was at home before she was seven, she lost her biological mother. What good life could she have with her stepmother? She could only look coldly at you doting on her stepmother’s children and give her some glances. When she was seven years old, she was sent to the Luo family by you.”
“She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. She could ride a yacht, take a private jet, and travel abroad like other rich ladies. The most annoying thing about her every day could have been that the shop assistant didn’t leave the beautiful bag that she liked for her. She could enjoy a better life than most people, but she was sent to the Luo family and suffered more than most people.”
“A young lady who didn’t know anything became capable of everything in the Luo family. She knew how to wash clothes with a washboard, cook, feed chickens, clean chicken coops, and identify wild vegetables by the roadside. Can you ask Jiang Yuexi if she knows how to do any of these?”
“When Jiang Yuexi was attending a prestigious school, she was bullied in an ordinary school. While Jiang Yuexi was drinking coffee and eating desserts at five-star hotels, she was cooking for the Luo family at home. During the New Year, when your family was happily enjoying a feast, eating lobsters, king crabs, caviar, black truffles, drinking champagne and red wine, and eating all kinds of expensive food, she cooked and washed clothes for the Luo family and watched them eat the New Year’s Eve dinner and dumplings that she had personally made. When the Luo family was full, she could take some back to her room to eat.”
“When Jiang Yuexi had countless jewelry, bags, and clothes, she could only wear the school uniform and Luo Zhenhao’s clothes. They were too small for him to wear, but on her, they were loose, yellow, and torn.
“When Jiang Yuexi was learning horse riding, archery, snowboarding, and flower arranging from her friends, she was pushed down the stairs and died.” Jiang Xun stared straight at Chengye. “Jiang Chengye, have you ever thought that she is also your daughter? She was born for you by your wife. Before she died, she also hoped that you would love your daughter well!”
“They’re both your children. Why did she have to live such a bitter life? Why couldn’t she have the life she deserved? Even after she returned home, she was still bullied by Feng Nianzhen and Jiang Yuexi. Feng Nianzhen and Jiang Yuexi casually said something in front of you, and you thought it’s her fault? You think it’s embarrassing for her to come from the countryside, but you haven’t thought about who it was who threw her there.”
“It was indeed Feng Nianzhen’s idea, but you were the one who agreed to it. If you din’t agree, no matter how much Feng Nianzhen talked to you, she wouldn’t be sent to the countryside. Do you want to take away the part that you should be responsible for? Don’t even think about it!”
“You have to take responsibility for her death. Both you and Feng Nianzhen!” Jiang Xun looked at Chengye coldly. “You killed your daughter. The only daughter your dead wife left you was also killed by you. Now, how can you use me as a substitute to atone for your sins and make your heart feel better?”
“She’s already dead. How are you going to atone for your sins?” Jiang Xun sneered. “What’s the use of you atoning for your sins towards me? Your daughter can’t feel it at all, nor can she obtain those benefits.”
“Her life was short. She didn’t even get to celebrate her coming-of-age. Because of you, her life was extremely miserable. Even if she didn’t die, she wouldn’t be able to live well with you, Feng Nianzhen, and Jiang Yuexi. This should have been her home, but she was pushed out.”
“However, no matter how much Feng Nianzhen and Jiang Yuexi did to her, it couldn’t be compared to what you, her biological father, did to her. It made her despair,” Jiang Xun clenched her fists and said.
The original owner’s soul had already left.
However, at this moment, Jiang Xun could still sense the original owner’s emotions.
The grievance and anger that surged up from the depths of her heart.
She wanted to shout but had nowhere to vent.
Disappointment and complaints towards this world, hatred towards Chengye.
Jiang Xun looked at Chengye coldly. “I only came here after she died.”
Jiang Xun turned around and asked Jixuan, who seemed to be dumbfounded, “Are you afraid?”
